Chimney Rock to the Spring in Upper Spring Canyon

Capitol Reef National Park

Spring Canyon runs over 16 miles from Thousand Lakes Mountain in the Fishlake National Forest to the Fremont River in Capitol Reef National Park. The canyon is divided into Upper and Lower segments; Chimney Rock Canyon leads into the heart of Spring Canyon, from which point hikers will find moderate travel in either direction. This unmaintained hiking route features towering Wingate cliffs, Navajo domes, twisting narrows and two springs.
